9ThreeXFifty7,

Many thanks for your suggestions. I was wondering if it was a small ring and I think I will take your advice and leave it in 9.3x57 if it is at all "iffy" to rechamber it. (I doubt I will ever point it at a Cape Buff anyway, but with slightly lighter bullets in 9.3x57 it should be fine for any larger plains game that my P-14 .303 Epps might not handle- this is for the "second" Africa trip, bearing in mind that I haven't made the first one yet!) I had planned to check the bedding and glass-bed it anyway.
